Piracy General

[QE65]

Library Genesis (Libgen) is down for me. Getting errors out the ass regardless of location. I haven't had to use it for a while but it appears these problems have materialized quite recently. Hopefully it's not on its way out.

This is probably well known but wanted to share for peeps coming late due to thread bumps.

I use both of these to keep track of stuff coming out.

I want to pirate photoshop without having to worry about malware or sketchy genkey programs. How do I go about this?

GenP works pretty well, only one sketchy program involved.

Making a rutracker.org account and looking up photoshop, sorting by seeds, is the easiest way in my opinion.

CreamAPI and Koaloader are what I use to give me DLCs for free

Seconded. Shit's magic. While not mentioned explicitly by @Anonitolia the Goldberg emulator that lets you play multiplayer via LAN in (some, not all AFAIK) pirated games and/or lets you play Steam games you own without needing Steam via a simple .dll replacement and GameID easily found on SteamDB is something i also found first at cs.rin.ru.

Could it simply be that there are seedboxes available for those torrents you're not seeing activity on? Torrent clients are usually intelligent enough to prefer a seed with sub-millisecond latency and gigabit bandwidth over one without.

This is what i am thinking. Part of why i left every private tracker i was a member of was that you had no chance of seeding your shit and holding ratio if you didn't pay for a seedbox once they got popular and i never shelled out money for one because i see it as paying for piracy, which is antithetical to the whole online piracy thing in my eyes. Also because i'm a cheap fuck.

.is is up for me, GETs work. Search is just for testing purposes:


Edit: Sorry, accidental doublepost.

I used GenP, which was already mentioned, but m0nkrus is another popular option (trusted repack.)

I've heard that Z-Library has been having issues for the last few days too. Bad days for book pirates.

https://annas-archive.org/ is a good one to have bookmarked, it has z-lib and libgen files.

Pirate Streaming Giants Fboxz, AniWave, Zoroxtv & Others Dead in Major Collapse (archive)

Vietnam may finally be cracking down on pirate streaming, or one major provider got taken out, leading a bunch of clones to shut down.

Fmovies Piracy Ring Was Shut Down by Vietnam, Assisted By ACE (archive)

Today, initial suspicions are confirmed; anti-piracy group ACE says it assisted Vietnamese authorities to shut down the piracy ring. In parallel, the Vietnamese Government is organizing a promo tour in Hollywood.

MPA says no more “Whac-a-Mole” with pirate sites, claims it took down “mothership” (archive)

In an April 2024 speech, Rivkin complained that American users were able to access Fmovies because of the lack of a site-blocking law. "One of the largest illegal streaming sites in the world, FMovies, sees over 160 million visits per month—and because other nations already passed site-blocking legislation, a third of that traffic still comes from the United States," Rivkin said. In the speech, Rivkin said the MPA planned to lobby members of Congress for a law requiring Internet service providers to block piracy websites.

I've been warning that ACE would score victories like this and safe havens will be lost. RIP 'Nam.

Are there any sites that have replaced Fmovies and AniWave yet?

Are there any sites that have replaced Fmovies and AniWave yet?

The FMHY website has a pretty good list of alternatives. I've been using Animetsu since AniWave got cut.

Isn't IGG games notorious for malware?

 

[Skeletron Prime]

That's what I hear. I haven't gotten anything from them, but I stopped using them due to the rumors. Can never be too careful, I suppose.

 

[The Feline Solution]

Isn't IGG games notorious for malware?

I heard this said so often but i never had a single problem with downloads from there. I guess retards who browse without adblock clicked one of the fake download links when being redirected or on the download sites and that is how that rumor spread. They just take scene and p2p releases and upload them on various 1-click-hoster sites.

 

[Susie Sumner]

Isn't IGG games notorious for malware?

Not notorious, but lost their credibility, iirc one of their downloads had malware so people stopped trusting the other ones just in case
If what youre looking for is only in IGG its probably fine

 

[Celebrate Nite]

Isn't IGG games notorious for malware?

The Malware that gets discussed regarding IGG is more along the lines of "IGG has their logo fucking everywhere in the games they crack" (e.g. changing a wall texture to add igg-games.com, or adding a HUD overlay that spams it or such), so it's more like "adware" in a sense.

Attached is a PDF document about an investigation done on IGG

Aww man, that document is just personal info... I wanted to see documentation and evidence on the "adware" since I've never read that one before
